Principal's Corner

Mrs. Silvia Huffer

I decided to become a teacher because I wanted to make a positive difference in the educational path of children. I have a strong belief that all children can learn and have the ability to reach their fullest potential to be successful in life. This is the reason that I'm honored to be the principal at Warren Williams School. Warren Williams provides all children with developmentally appropriate practices with highly qualified staff.

To share a little about myself, I was born in Colombia but am proud to say that I'm a US citizen!!! I graduated in Early Childhood Education with a Bachelor of Science from the Universidad Pedagogica Nacional in Bogota, Colombia - South America. Once I arrived in the United States of America I added an English as a Second Language licensure from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I continued my education and graduated with a Masters of School Administration from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
